unless POSIX explicitly states that the symbols be in -lc, i don't think
uClibc is broken. i don't believe POSIX states that (if it does, please point
out in the docs).
keeping them in -lrt over -lc makes a bit of sense in my mind:
- the POSIX docs label them as "ADVANCED REALTIME" (ok, ok, maybe i'm
reaching here as what POSIX calls "realtime" is often not really "realtime"
related)
- these funcs are not common (that i've seen). that means always
mapping
them in via libc.so is useless overhead. better to penalize the uncommon.
